| dc.description.abstract | Total rainfall for 1958 equaled or exceeded the record mean at most points in the Gulf Coast region. The Lower Valley received the highest rainfall total since 1887. Good rainfall distribution over the coast resulted in good to excellent production of native waterfowl food plants. In addition, waste or lost grain and weed seeds in the rice fields were also readily available to the waterfowl. There was a substantial increase in waterfowl populations in the coastal region -- the highest since 1953. However, the total Texas midwinter waterfowl population was only slightly more than last year's population. Especially noteworthy was the increase in pintails, redheads and scaup. Throughout the winter almost one-half to three-fourths of the coastal populations were concentrated along the lower quarter of the coast. Only in January was a flight made into Mexico -- disclosing a goodly number of pintails and redheads and favorable habitat conditions. | en_US |
